<p>[QUOTE=&quot;superc, post: 1624533, member: 44079&quot;]Yuh, that is the only reason I have hung on to my wife&#039;s rolls of President coins.&nbsp; There was (and still is) a real temptation to swap a few rolls of them for Morgans, but what stopped me was my noticing the gold glitter rubs off or tarnishes on the loose ones.&nbsp; That means (especially now that even the Post Office no longer deals in them) the numbers of them in circulation that are also in perfect condition will in about 5 - 10 years decrease.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, one source for them (also half dollar coins) I discovered a few years ago is my local 711.&nbsp; Get friendly with the clerks there, as in learn their names, their spouse or kid&#039;s names, how to say hello in their native language etc.&nbsp; In this economy, at least in this neck of the woods they get a fair amount of people coming in to buy 3 - 10 dollars of gas and paying with coin.&nbsp; Varying types.&nbsp; Locally, before I entered the equation they would just bring them to the bank.&nbsp; Now, once every couple weeks I will visit and get to cherry pick from a friend there the non-standard coins which he has set aside for me to look at.&nbsp; I have obtained many Susan B&#039;s and Presidential dollars that way (also some silver dollars, halves and once an Eagle which I have been giving them melt value for).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
